Shell Morgan to Morgan City/Berwick


Shell Morgan to Morgan City  October 20, 1012

We had an issue again with the starter battery again.  We had to use house batteries again to start the engine again.
The fishing boat that was behind us left before we did so we were glad we did not have to try to back around it.  The fishing boat owners had called in a crew to take it back home… they drove out from the pier ripping off the bumpers and scraping along the pier… the owner of this brand new boat will not be happy to hear that.  We backed out just fine.  We reached the Cable Ferry at 11:20.  We saw several unusual boats.  The best one was this Redneck Man-Cave where it was being powered by one of two outboards on fishing boats attached astern.

We were not able to stay on the Morgan Side.  The group had called and L. was suppose to be there to make sure we had room, but he did not show and we were out of luck.  So, we went to the Berwick side. Piers were tall and ragged.  Stardust tied off and we tied up to them.  They let us use an extension cord for power.  There was a train track that kept ringing a bell all night. 



We were able to get Mike off the boat and we all had dinner at Bee Bee’s Seafood.  Gumbo was great, but fried food was not.
